Solution

1. Preparation

• Gather necessary tools and parts.
• Disconnect the negative battery terminal to prevent electrical shorts.
• Allow the engine to cool if it has been running.

2. Inspect and Replace Engine Oil

1. Drain old engine oil if it is contaminated or low.
2. Replace with the manufacturer-recommended oil type and viscosity.
3. Replace the oil filter to ensure proper flow to the VVT system.
4. Refill the engine with fresh oil, ensuring the level is correct.

3. Replace VVT Solenoid

1. Locate the VVT solenoid, typically found near the engine's timing cover.
2. Disconnect the electrical connector from the solenoid.
3. Remove the mounting bolts using a socket set.
4. Carefully pull the solenoid out of its housing.
5. Install the new VVT solenoid, ensuring it is seated correctly.
6. Reconnect the electrical connector and secure with bolts.

4. Check Timing Chain/Belt

1. Remove any necessary covers to access the timing belt/chain.
2. Inspect for signs of wear, fraying, or misalignment.
3. If damaged, remove the old timing belt/chain and replace it with a new one, following the manufacturer’s specifications for timing marks and tension.
4. Reattach the covers and ensure they are secure.

5. Reconnect Battery
